Interesting to compare FCF Estimates of $AMZN $NVDA $GOOG & $MSFT 💵
• By the end of 2028, $AMZN is projected to generate more FCF ($142.34B) than the rest 💸
• $NVDA is projected to nearly triple its FCF in 2 years (2024-2026) 🤯
• Despite $NVDA outstanding growth, $GOOG & $MSFT FCF projections are still impressive 📈
Current valuations:
• $AMZN 1.96T
• $NVDA 3.00T
• $GOOG 2.25T
• $MSFT 3.34T

A sober valuation analysis on $DHR 🧘🏽♂️
•NTM P/E Ratio: 30.69x
•10-Year Mean: 25.18x
•NTM FCF Yield: 4.34%
•10-Year Mean: 3.24%
As you can see, $DHR appears to be trading above fair value
Going forward, investors can receive ~18% LESS in earnings per share & ~25% LESS in FCF per share 🧠***
Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $DHR is a quality business
BALANCE SHEET✅
•Cash & Short-Term Inv: $7.03B
•Long-Term Debt: $16.42B
$DHR has a great balance sheet, an A- S&P Credit Rating, & 22x FFO Interest Coverage
RETURN ON CAPITAL🆗*
•2019: 6.2%
•2020: 7.8%
•2021: 10.3%
•2022: 10.7%
•2023: 7.4%
•LTM: 7.2%
*ROIC relatively low partly due to $DHR growth strategy (acquisitions, capital allocation, etc)
RETURN ON EQUITY🆗
•2019: 8.3%
•2020: 10.8%
•2021: 12.8%
•2022: 13.3%
•2023: 8.2%
•LTM: 7.8%
$DHR has decent return metrics, highlighting the financial efficiency of the business

•2018: $17.05B
•2023: $23.89B
•CAGR: 6.97%
FREE CASH FLOW✅
•2018: $3.44B
•2023: $5.78B
•CAGR: 10.93%
NORMALIZED EPS✅
•2018: $7.58
•2023: $4.52
•CAGR: 10.89%
SHARE BUYBACKS❌
•2018 Shares Outstanding: 0.70B
•LTM Shares Outstanding: 0.74B
MARGINS✅
•LTM Gross Margins: 58.9%
•LTM Operating Margins: 21.9%
•LTM Net Income Margins: 17.1%
***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠
As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~18% LESS in EPS & ~25% LESS in FCF per share
Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $DHR has to grow earnings at a 15.35% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation
Today, analysts anticipate 2024 - 2026 EPS growth over the next few years to be less than the (15.35%) required growth rate:
2024E: $7.62 (0.5% YoY) *FY Dec
2025E: $8.74 (14.8% YoY)
2026E: $9.71 (11.0% YoY)
$DHR has a decent track record of meeting analyst estimates ~2 years out, so let’s assume $DHR ends 2026 with $9.71 in EPS & see its CAGR potential assuming different multiples
32x P/E: $310.72💵 … ~11.3% CAGR
28x P/E: $271.88💵 … ~5.5% CAGR
27x P/E: $262.16💵 … ~4.0% CAGR
26x P/E: $252.46💵 … ~2.5% CAGR
25x P/E: $242.75💵 … ~1.0% CAGR
As you can see, $DHR needs to trade above 32x to have attractive return potential
While possible, I wouldn’t want to rely on that assumption as it doesn’t leave us with any margin of safety
While the 10-year mean multiple is 25.18x, I’d be content relying on somewhere closer to 27x - 28x earnings given $DHR quality, culture, competitive advantage, earnings growth rate & the quality of earnings, & long-term tailwinds in the sector
Yet, even at 27x - 28x earnings, the return potential outlook is bleak
Today at $240💵 $DHR is trading at a substantial premium
I’d become interested in $DHR closer to $200💵 or at ~25.50x NTM earnings (roughly 16.7% below today’s price)
At that price, I can reasonably expect ~12% CAGR while assuming 27x & ~10.2% CAGR while assuming 26x, a multiple I view as fair for $DHR

Loop Capital reiterates Buy rating and $160 price target, to see at least modest upside in Q2 revenue.
Loop Capital analyst Yun Kim keeps a Buy rating and $160 price target on Datadog while noting that the firm anticipates "'at least a modest revenue upside" to its Q2. Loop notes that the qualitative checks into the company's business suggest that the overall usage trend around non-Al workloads in the quarter remained steady from Q1's positive trajectory, adding that its industry checks also indicated favorable spending trends for new cloud deployments in the first half, which should lead to a ramp of new workloads in the second half as these new deployments go into production.
